Though hardly unexpected. It's nice since I own an Xbox 360 AND have Netflix already.

Is MS going to ease up a bit on the hardrive pricing???? I have a 20gig xbox 360 and dont plan on buying a new one just to get the extra space. If they dont lower the overpriced 120 gig then what's the point in all this focus on downloaded content?

Well, hopefully, we will have the option to download them and watch them later, instead of streaming everything. Nothing's more irritating than getting the buffering progress bar in the middle of a movie.

It should be noted though that if you have Vista and an Xbox360, you can already stream Netflix to your 360 without needing a Gold account. There's a little piece of hacker code out there that'll get the job done for you. Netflix has been streaming movies to PC for about a year.
